  1. Vanguard came close 1981. They won visual by .05. Didn't win any other caption awards.
  2. Agree wholeheartedly When I saw Bluecoats " uniforms ", I thought immediately that if Vanguard had chosen those colors they would score higher...just reading the drill and everything would just *POP*. Vanguard's uniforms are just so drab IMHO
  3. Not the first time for high color guard. They also won the trophy in 1978. It was somewhat controversial as they didn't carry any rifles that year, just hula hoops and flags. On another note, Gale must be beaming in heaven. Beating the Troopers was a milestone when he first came out with the Vanguard. Now even the Vanguard Cadets have beaten them. That is a real accomplishment. He is grinning from ear to ear and so pleased to see SCV in 2nd and pushing for #1 next year.
  4. I feel sorry for the keyboard player. A couple of weeks ago in church we had a high pitched squeal. They checked the sound system and kept on with the service, but it was very annoying. The choir director came over to me and said, "Is it the organ?". I tried it once turning it off and then back on. After he came and asked me I tried it again. The person who installed this organ added a lot of bells and whistles on it and it took like 45 seconds or so to reboot. The choir is looking at me and saying "Gloria Patri"..I had the music and my hands ready......the organ just hadn't rebooted. I was so embarrassed It turned out to be someone's hearing aid
  5. The poster who used "The 10 things I hate about you" had the right idea, but the wrong movie. I have it on good authority that the engind for finals will feature "Bolero" and Bo Derek from the movie "10".
  6. The "education courses" that make the degree one in education are and have been Mickey Mouse for years. You learn more in your first week of student teaching than in 30 hours of "education classes".
  7. Just a question OT.....what do the corps get after the show in place of a tape? Do they provide each judge with a digital recorder with their name on it.....there is no easy way I know of to make it into a CD. I thought about that earlier this week. When I taught it was the marvelous cassette tape (LOL).
  8. I think in the late 70's early 80's Seattle Imperials and Capital Freelancers (the year Shirlee Whitcomb worked with their design) dis use jumpsuits not only on the guard, but on the corps proper.

  10. Just remember though, he could only hear 1/2 of the show or at least all of the show at 1/2 volume. (sorry I just had to)
  11. I recently found a prelim ticket to DCI in 1975 in Philadelphia. Can you guess how much it was? I thought maybe $7-$10. It was only $3.00
  12. No one involved in these posts ever had gym class or don't they make you shower after gym class anymore??? That is where I got my initiation.
